Robert Pattinson

British actor Robert Pattinson starred as Hogwarts heartthrob Cedric Diggory in the Harry Potter films before achieving worldwide fame as vampire Edward Cullen in "Twilight." Fans of Stephenie Meyer's books first balked at the choice of Pattinson for the role, but they were soon swayed, and he became 2008's biggest teen sensation. Pattinson and co-star Kristen Stewart have signed on for "New Moon," the sequel to "Twilight."
